Why I think Sony could drop 100 dollars on the PS3 and profit from it.

i'm just talking about PS3 hardware alone, there was something else losing money too, PS2 and PSP should have been profitable as well.

I see, $44 mill from PS3 alone.

The rest of the losses I believe come from the 1st party software business which was dimensioned after a 120 million selling Playstation console, not a 60 million selling console like the PS3 is. In this gen the size of the 1st party developer teams are over-dimensioned, so naturally the projected software sales targets cannot have been met.

I can think of 2 other causes that account for (probably) the majority of the loses other than your pathetic attempt at a knock at sony.

Like what? Like including the Emotion Engine in the PS3 lol? That and developing the wand accounted for the majority of the losses during three years.
